Nanaimo Street Upgrades

Work includes replacing the sewer with a separated and larger-capacity system, with one pipe for rainwater runoff and another pipe for sanitary sewer. The new sewer will have a life expectancy of 100 years to help serve this growing neighbourhood.

In coordination with these sewer upgrades, there's also an opportunity to improve Nanaimo Street to make it safer and more comfortable for everyone.

Sewer separation

We are working towards the Province of BC's environmental goal to eliminate sewage overflows by 2050.

Key recommendations

Nanaimo is an arterial street, truck and bus route, and provides an important connection to local neighbourhoods. Many of the proposed improvements were informed through the Grandview-Woodland Community Plan and previous community feedback as part of making Nanaimo a more complete street.
